LIVE Cataract Surgery & Seminar in 3-D

The Eye Institute of West Florida hosts many public seminars that are of great interest to the public.


At this "Live" event guests will learn about the decisions they will have to make when faced with having cataract surgery. Guests want to know what is a cataract, when is a good time to remove a cataract, what is the best replacement lens for them, what technology we incorporate to best determine precision and accuracy during surgery, and what makes a great cataract surgeon.


Our "Live" event is quite unique. A live signal, in 3-D, is fed from our OR to a viewing audience wearing 3-D glasses. The surgery is over in minutes. Afterwards, the patient comes down to answer questions about the surgery from the audience. If it sounds spectacular, it is because it is. Nobody puts on a presentation quite as well as this and guests leave knowing a lot more about cataracts.
